Fantastic experience: Just passed my D1 after an intensive course. I had fantastic instructors who were both friendly and knowledgeable. I would highly recommend for any driving needs.

Fantastic experience: Just passed after completing an intensive course with Paul and would definitely recommend. Really great experience, Paul is easy to talk to and took the time to go through everything step by step, helping me feel comfortable along the way. Shirley was also super helpful in arranging a test and checking for cancellation dates constantly. Thanks so much both!

Fantastic experience: Would definitely recommend castle. My instructor Shirley not only helped me pass first time with only 2 minors but also helped my 2 older siblings pass who both had great experiences with her.

Negative experience: Tried to book revision lessons which are advertised on the website. Got a response they are unable to give me any lessons. What is the point of advertising something if you are unable to provide that service. Did not provide any information of why they are unable and also when will be next available spot to book. Bad customer service. Clients will go other school instead for the same price! Do not recommend.

Please advise what 'revision lessons' you were enquiring about. If you were looking for 'refresher lessons' then if we couldn't offer you lessons it would of been because we are fully booked or unable to cover the times you were asking for

Fantastic experience: My partner passed her test yesterday with castle and Phil O’Keefe and today was her first day driving alone and her driving confidence is top tier for a new driver. He was consistent and done a great job of building the confidence of a really anxious learner. Phil is the man.

Fantastic experience: I hadn't driven for over 10 years and lost confidence about driving. I booked a refresher lesson with Phil and was very nervous at first but Phil soon put me at ease. Can't thank him enough for giving me my confidence back and now looking forward to getting a car so hubby and I can get out and about. Thank you once again Castle Driving School and Phil

Fantastic experience: Huge thanks to Martin! He is a fantastic Adi instructor, really challenged me, made me think and helped me get through the the tough bits! I originally passed with Derek 18 years ago when I was 17 so knew Castle Driving School was the right choice for me. With Martin's help I passed each stage of the Adi training 1st time. Thanks very much! X

Fantastic experience: I was pleased having my driving lessons with shirley and passing my test with only one minor! Great instructor and very nice person to be around!

Fantastic experience: Within the last month I have passed my driving test first time with my instructor, Shirley. She has been an amazing driving instructor who's teaching methods are calm and effective. Throughout the 7 months of lessons, I have always felt comfortable and happy driving in the car with Shirley. Castle is such a good company to drive with as they offer such a good driving school and have very kind instructors - I will recommend Castle and Shirley to anyone who is looking to learn to drive!

Negative experience: Terrible experience. No consistent weekly learning, wouldn't respond to calls/messages for bookings, claimed that car broke down lost count on how many times over a short period to avoid lessons after taking money, found that hard to believe. Must avoid!

Negative experience: Terrible experience

Negative experience: i would give no stars if i could; driving instructor was aggressive and swore. Also felt as my money was being taken with no progress. Avoid.
